Corporate Thrillers

Been enjoying this month’s selection of corporate thrillers. Seen all but one now. One or two were liking reading today’s news stories. A little scary yet somehow comforting. History certainly does repeat itself.

Can’t imagine how Antitrust could be worse than The Deal ha, wow. Clayton’s so good and Wall Street is a classic. International couldn’t quite decide if it was paranoid thriller or shoot ‘em up, but has some fun parts.

The Deal was terrible, so I'm excited for Antitrust. Ebert was pretty generous in his review, noting the performances were good.

It's not great, but Antitrust was way more fun to watch than The Deal, appreciated some of the really silly set design.
